The city has launched an all-out assault on potholes in the hopes of filling thousands of craters that sprang up across the Big Apple after the weekend snowstorm, officials said yesterday.

Repair crews were out in force across the five boroughs yesterday.

The Department of Transportation sent out 31 crews yesterday after workers filled 1,016 potholes on Monday in an effort to curb the craters before the problem got out of hand.

“We’ll be out over the next few days making sure potholes are being filled,” said DOT spokesman Tom Cocola.

The agency said there were currently 747 pothole complaints, and that the number is expected to skyrocket this week.

“We figure the numbers will go up as more and more snow melts and people begin calling us,” Cocola said.

The blitz comes nine months after The Post reported that the DOT had vowed to eliminate potholes after last season’s fierce winter, only to discover that some crews were taking almost six hours to fill just one.
